1、LI MIAO: LECTURES ON REAL ANALYSISChap ter 3. Measure TheoryThe Lebesgue measure, named after Henri Lebesgue, is the standard way of assigning a length, area or volumes to subsets of Euclidean space It is used throughout real analysis, in particular to dofiiie Lebesgue integration Sets which can be

2、assigned a volume are called Lebesgue measurable; the volume or measure of the Lebesgue measurable set A is denoted by m(A). A Lebesgue measure of oc is possible, but even so. assuming the axiom of choice, not all subsets of are Lebesgue measurable.Henri Lebesgue described his measure in 1901, follo

If E is a closed interval a, 6, then its Lebesgue measure is the length b a The open interval (a, 6) has the same measure, since the difference between the two sets has

4、measure zero.2. If E is the Cartesian product of intervals a. b and c. d, then it is a rectangle and its Lebesgue measure is the area (b a)(d c).3 The Cantor set is an example of an uncountable set that has Lebesgue measure zeroThe modern construction of the Lebesgue measure, based on outer measures
